New Vehicle Break-In

Notice: Your vehicle does not need an elaborate
break-in. But it will perform better in the long run if
you follow these guidelines:

Do not drive at any one speed, fast or slow,
for the first 500 miles (805 km). Do not make
full-throttle starts.

Avoid making hard stops for the first 200 miles
(322 km) or so. During this time your new
brake linings are not yet broken in. Hard stops
with new linings can mean premature wear
and earlier replacement. Follow this breaking-in
guideline every time you get new brake
linings.

Do not tow a trailer during break-in. See Towing
a Trailer
on page 4-40 for more information.
